The strongest Trading talent rarely needs to look for its next role. Storm2 connects trading businesses across the US with specialist, senior and executive talent across quantitative trading, research, engineering, data and institutional sales.
Building a high-performing trading business depends on people with a very particular mix of market knowledge, technical ability and commercial instinct. Those people are difficult to find – and even harder to hire through a traditional recruitment process.
Trading is already part of the markets Storm2 works across. Our teams recruit within Finance & Operations, Software Engineering, AI, Data & Analytics and Sales, with networks that extend into quantitative finance, prediction markets, digital assets, WealthTech and institutional trading.
That gives our Trading recruitment team access to talent across both sides of the market – the people developing the strategy and the people building the technology, data and infrastructure behind it.
A successful trading operation is about far more than the trader. Research creates the idea. Data finds the signal. Technology turns it into something scalable. Trading puts it into the market. The right commercial talent builds the relationships around it.
Storm2 supports hiring across each of those areas.

Our network crosses traditional financial markets and the technology reshaping how those markets operate.
Specialist talent across quantitative trading, research, execution and high-performance engineering.
From portfolio and research leadership to the quantitative and technical teams turning ideas into live strategies.
Trading, investment, technology, data and institutional commercial talent for businesses serving sophisticated investors.
Talent working at the intersection of markets, technology and new forms of trading.
Engineers, data specialists and commercial leaders building the platforms and infrastructure modern markets rely on.
A Quantitative Developer could be five years into their career or have spent two decades building trading systems. The title alone doesn’t tell you the level of expertise sitting behind it.
That’s why we recruit around the problem you need someone to solve – their track record, technical depth, market experience and the impact they can have on your business.
Whether you’re looking for a specialist individual contributor, a Director to build a new function or an executive to shape the next stage of your business, we start with what success actually looks like.
Since 2019, Storm2 has been building relationships across the US FinTech ecosystem.
We speak to senior professionals throughout their careers, not simply when they’re actively looking for a job. That matters in Trading, where many of the strongest people are well rewarded, highly selective and unlikely to be sitting on a job board.
When you need to hire, we’re already talking to the market.

It means our relationships aren’t built from a cold search after a brief lands. We know the people shaping the market, what they’ve built and what might make the right opportunity worth a conversation.
